Description | | *Despereaux-7 's comic | | First | | Previous | | Next | |

For some reason, when I planned this comic, I had the tv hyena growling. I don't know if hyenas ever growl but I changed the comic after watching Hyenas on the Hunt .

If you are interested, this picture shows the scale of my comics.


Niobe translation
Huh? Ó, hæ hvutti, heh heh…
Huh? Oh. Hi, doggie.

Ekki bíta mig!!
Don’t bite me!

Hættu að elta mig hvutti!! Ég vil ekki deyjaaa!
Stop chasing me, doggie! I don’t want to die!


Thank you, *bananamon , for helping me with translations. I'm sure you weren't expecting a three page long note detailing tone when you said you'd help me but you were great. I couldn't be happier. My offer to make it up to you still stands!

I know I've already told you this, but I honestly have to say that I like how not-anorexic Niobe is in these pages. She looks like she could actually have organs in that body, now.

Oh Dusty, you're so persistent, but only so long as it holds your goldfish-like attention span. That bird shall fly free till another day.

Not-anorexic Niobe versus malnourished Dusty. It's a battle of the waistlines.

One day, that bird will be hi.... okay, maybe not.

Though what language is it? I'm surprised I'm able to read some of it O_o Swedish?

If it were someone other than Dusty, than I'd say this would be the premise for a "rescue the damsel in distress" type story. But we all know Dusty most certainly isn't that type.

I'm seriously loving the cut-out style of this, and how the colors and textures interplay with each other. Question - how long does it take you to put one of these pages together?

Res-Gestae In reply to Synchros [2011-01-17 05:42:46 +0000 UTC]

Dusty wouldn't know what to do with a damsel if she fell in his lap.

Thank you! It's been a lot of fun thinking about comicing this way.

Honestly, I can't say. I was in a groove for a while where, each night, I'd finish the backgrounds and inking on one comic and cutting out the characters on the next but that got messed up when school started. Plus, I didn't start the digital work until I was already five pages into the project. I can say I've been working basically since they announced the round. It took a while to get a plan and all the materials, though.

I'm so glad you figured out the bubbles. Progress! It looks great. I'm continuosly amazed by how much your lighting changes the paper colors.

If she'll eat red velvet, she ought to eat chocolate.

Your tastebuds at 7 are not the same as your tastebuds in your 20s.

Damsel in distress |D it's too bad Dusty isn't really the rescuing type, I don't imagine so anyways.

Damsel in distress makes more sense than dissociative identity disorder, lol.

And, no, Dusty isn't the rescuing type. He's more the kick 'em while they are down and take their stuff type.
